About “Nobody's Perfect”

This Missy collab features Cole talking about the ladies and wondering about his girl’s “number”. Maybe he should talk to Anna Faris.

The first verse of this song is widely considered one of J Cole’s best. He litters the verse with internal and multisyllabic rhymes, and some quotable lines.

What has J. Cole said about the song?

I felt like the album needed something that you could just ride to. I ended up doing the beat and writing the raps and I’m like ‘This really does sound like an old Aaliyah song,’ so I was like ‘Ahh, Missy!’
